Indiana Dunes article
I have had to remove the text you added as it was copyrighted to the original writers and not free as we require. Additionally it was far too long and detailed for that article about the park. Rmhermen (talk) 19:42, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Please do not arbitrarily remove content without giving us a chance to complete with citations. The content cited is free to be used.  We (the DNLP) work directly with and are endorsed by the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore (http://www.nps.gov/indu/index.htm). Indianadnlp (talk)
 * The current paragragh seems appropriate. Anytime pre-written content is added it needs to be verified as freely released by the copyright holder through the Donating Copyrighted material procedure (OTRS ticket) and it is almost always simpler to simply rewrite it. (And usually leads to a more encyclopedic tone and size, as well.) Rmhermen (talk) 20:46, 15 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your help and the additional information. Indianadnlp (talk) 21:18, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. I noticed that the username you have chosen (Indianadnlp) seems to imply that you are editing on behalf of a group, company or website.

There are two issues with this :
 * 1) It is possible that you have a conflict of interest. In keeping with Wikipedia's neutral point of view policy, you must exercise great caution when editing on topics related to your organization or adding links to its website.
 * 2) Your account cannot represent a group of people. You may wish to create a new account with a username that represents only you. Alternatively, you may consider changing your username to avoid giving the impression that your personal account is being used for promotional purposes.

Regardless of whether you change your name or create a new account, you are not exempted from the guidelines concerning editing where you have a conflict of interest. For information on how to contribute to Wikipedia when you have a conflict of interest, please see our frequently asked questions for organizations. Thank you. ''your username reflects a real-world group or orgainzation; such usernames are against Wikipedia policy. In addition, an account that is used, or has a username suggesting that it is used, by more than one person is against Wikipedia policy; each account must belong to and be used by an individual, not a group, organization, association or any other non-individual entity'' The Bushranger One ping only 06:02, 16 June 2012 (UTC)

Welcome to Wikipedia. Because we have a policy against usernames that give the impression that the account represents a group, organization or website, I have blocked this account; please take a moment to create a new account with a username that represents only yourself as an individual.

Additionally, it appears your account is intended to be used for the purpose of telling the world about an organization or cause that you consider worthwhile. Unfortunately, many good causes are not sufficiently notable for their own Wikipedia article, and all users are discouraged from editing in any area where they have an inherent conflict of interest, though you may wish to consider one of these alternative outlets. If your username doesn't represent a group, organization or website, you may appeal this username block by adding the text below this notice. Thank you. -- Orange Mike &#x007C;  Talk  15:45, 16 June 2012 (UTC)
